Old Mrs. Meng didn't want to look at her two miserable sons, so she continued talking.
"Of course, if you want a house, that's fine. This year, all the work points in the family must be given to us two elders as money to buy a house."
Meng Jianguo and his wife breathed a sigh of relief. If they didn't want the house, this year's work points would be theirs.
"Also, there are the work points earned in the past few years. After the family eats and drinks, there is not much left. If you want it, I will give you every penny..."
"What are you talking about, mother?"
Meng Daqiang interrupted his mother directly and looked at his second and eldest brothers with dissatisfaction.
"Mom, let's not talk about anything else. You have worked hard for us three brothers for most of your life. Not to mention the money from the division of the family, even if we give you money for your retirement, it is only right."
Meng Daqiang made money and spoke in a particularly firm and generous manner.
The youngest son's words made the two elders of the Meng family feel relieved instantly. They instantly felt that money was a trivial matter and it was good enough to have such a heart.
The man was going to give money, but Zhao Hong was hesitant to speak. The two girls in the family would be married in the future, and Meng Daqiang was lazy, so the family would have to rely on her to work and give the money to them.
And if the family moves out, where will they live?
Meng Qidi wanted to laugh, and couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, so she made a soft sound.
"Dad, if we split up, grandpa and grandma will be old in the future. Why don't we do this? The one who splits up will give grandpa and grandma ten dollars a year for their retirement?"
These words almost made Zhao Hong jump up and down, and she wished she could shut Meng Qidi's mouth.
Meng Daqiang was stunned for a moment. He hadn’t really thought that far. Then he sighed.
"Xiao Qi is right. It's time for us to take care of your grandparents in their old age."
The words of her son and granddaughter made Old Mrs. Meng smile. Among the people in the room, only the two of them were so caring.
Old Man Meng couldn't stop smiling. "Okay, you two, father and daughter, what do you mean by we are old? Of course, we can't stop you from being filial. How about this, each family gets five dollars a year."
In fact, what the old woman said was what he was thinking. He had already asked the fourth son to help build the house. As long as the family property was divided, the two old people could move into the new house.
And the eldest and second sons will definitely use their work points to buy a house.
The father and daughter sang in unison, and the two elders were happy, but Sun Fang's sister-in-law was very annoyed with them.
Giving everyone time to digest the news, the old lady waited quietly.
Zhao Hong pulled Meng Daqiang out, lowered her voice and expressed her concerns, looking at him with some resentment.
"Daqiang, where does our family get so much money?"
Meng Daqiang was somewhat dissatisfied with her meddling too much, "Why do you care so much? I'm not asking you to pay."
If she hadn't been keeping an eye on Xiaoqi every day, he would have told her about Xiaoqi's efforts to make money.
Being scolded by the man, Zhao Hong's eyes flashed with displeasure, but she didn't dare to say anything.
The three brothers returned to the main room. Except Meng Daqiang, neither the eldest nor the second eldest spoke first.
"Mom and Dad, let's split up. I don't want the house anymore. As for the pension, I'll give you ten dollars a year! I don't ask for much, just the pond next door and the land next to it. Dad knows the scope of the land."
Meng Daqiang said this with his back straight and very firm.
With that pond, he feels confident.
These words made the two brothers Meng Jianguo look over. They didn't take the fourth brother's words seriously before. It seemed that the fourth brother had money in his hands and didn't hand it over to the public?
Gamble, or...
Old Mrs. Meng nodded gently, "Okay, if you want to divide it, then do it. What about you two? If you don't want to divide it now, then wait until the children get married and divide it."
It just so happened that the family was being divided now, so she had an excuse, saying that the fourth brother's children had all started their own families, so it was normal to divide the family and it was not shameful.
The two brothers Meng Jianguo and Meng Jianzhang looked at each other and decided that if they really had to live in the same house for decades, it would be better for them to separate.
Then they said, "We'll share, but, Mom, isn't ten dollars too much?"
They worked all year round and handed in all their work points, so they had no private money.
If I use this year's work points to buy a house, I will definitely have no money. It would be good enough to have something to eat.
Old Lady Meng said, "You don't have to pay for the first five years, you can pay later. Do you want the house?"
"I don't want it." Meng Daqiang shook his head. He wanted to be a big boss and must live in a new house.
"Okay, then the house will be divided between the eldest and the second. Do you agree?"
Meng Daqiang shrugged, "I have no objection."
"The whole house will be divided between me and the second oldest?" Meng Jianguo was a little surprised. He thought that as the eldest brother, he would be responsible for taking care of his parents in their old age.
"Yes, you two can decide how to divide it. In the next two days, we will take inventory of the farm tools at home, including the food supplies at home, and then we will call a few people to witness the division of the property in a few days."
When the old lady said this, two of the three daughters-in-law who were eavesdropping at the door smiled happily. The house belongs to them?
Zhao Hong's face turned pale, and she wanted to rush in and scold Meng Daqiang. Did he want to force their fourth family to beg for food?
The faces of the children nearby were filled with joy.
Meng Xiaofu gently tugged at the corner of Meng Qidi's clothes, "Fifth sister, what do you mean?"
"Stupid, of course it's our division." Fat Meng looked disgusted.
"Now that the family is divided, will we never see our fifth sister again?"
Meng Xiaofu had a worried look on her face. If her fifth sister wasn't around, would her mother beat her to death?
Finally, her mother has no time to take care of her these days.
"You still don't believe me when I say you're stupid. Even though Fifth Sister is married, you still can't see her. It makes no difference."
Meng Qidi glanced at the two little ones beside her and was a little speechless, "Now that the family is separated, you don't have to live in the same room with your parents."
